Abstract
Herein, the strain (S) with low hysteresis can be achieved in [Bi0.5(Na0.72K0.18Li0.10)0.5]0.995Sr0.005(Ti0.995Ta0.005)O3-BaZrO3-NaNbO3 ceramics by an electrostrictive effect, and an excellent electrostrictive coefficient (Q33) of ∼0.037 m4/C2 can be obtained under an electric field of 60 kV/cm. The enhancement of the degree of diffuseness regulated by phase compositions can effectively promote the electrostrictive response and increase the Q33 value. A higher ratio of P4bm and a larger Ps in P4bm guarantee the good linear relationship between S and P2 (P represents polarization), where a larger Ps (P4bm) can effectively restrict the expression of ferroelectric state with the increase of electric fields (E). Consequently, high Q33 values (0.033–0.037 m4/C2) are nearly independent of the applied electric fields. Although the strain from the electrostrictive effect is not tremendous, the good linear relationship between S and P2 is meaningful to the accurate displacement control in displacement actuators.
